What kind of weird button is this?

Chapter 25 The second prince is so caring
  About tens of kilometers away from Anka City, there is an endless wet and dark swamp area.

Thick vines and tall trees intertwined into a lush jungle above the swampy water, and mist spread over the low ground, making the sight blurry. This is a place that humans may never want to set foot in.

But for the lizard people here, this environment happens to be their most suitable territory. The eerie cries of them lurking here are intertwined with the sound of foam on the water, creating a dangerous atmosphere.

Most of these lizardmen are tall. In comparison, they are a whole person taller than the humans in this world. In a pure one-on-one confrontation, ordinary soldiers cannot survive for a minute in their hands.

Not to mention that the skin is covered with hard scales and their skin color ranges from dark green to muddy brown, which not only gives them the unpretentious thick blood skin, but also allows them to hide themselves in the dark. Capital.

At this moment, as a low horn sounded, the calm in the swamp was broken. Many lizardmen began to gather towards the center. They moved towards the assembly point from all directions, moving quickly and firmly. As more and more lizardmen gathered towards the center, a huge army gradually formed.

Although the horn sound was not very loud, the roar of the leader lizard still made the Anka outpost not far outside the swamp feel something bad.

"Boss, those lizard men seem to be getting ready to leave."

"Let me see."

The senior soldier who took the telescope from the former looked in the direction pointed by the other party, and sure enough saw the group of lizardmen in the camera rushing towards Anka City with simple weapons in their hands.

Because the outpost is to observe intelligence from hostile areas, their location is not a must-pass on the route between these two points, so they now have enough time to use the magicians in Anka City to provide them with The short-range communication magic device reports information.

But after doing this, everyone had a solemn look on their faces.

Because they knew that this battle would be a tough one.

"get up."

Drowsily, Sirius always felt as if someone was calling him.

"Get up and don't make me say it a third time."

not good……

This familiar cold voice immediately made Sirius, who was still sleeping on the bed, tremble. His slightly opened eyes also immediately spotted Nalia, who was wearing a training suit at the moment.

The originally white and silky long hair was now tied into a neat ponytail. Coupled with the sword on the waist that the opponent's right hand had been holding down, he immediately understood what this woman wanted to do with him.

Revenge, definitely revenge.

Just because he talked too much in the military camp yesterday and stole her limelight, is he still holding a grudge to this day?

Or is it simply that sentence, it’s better to mess with anyone but not women?

"Get up, you asked me to say it a third time, and your training will be doubled later."

"His Royal Highness..."

"Find me in the back courtyard."

Nalia didn't give Sirius a good look, as if to her, the man in front of her who looked no different from her own brother was no different from a dog.

But Sirius didn't care about this, at least now he was still the second prince on the surface. Even if his sister already treated him as a fake and a pariah, she wouldn't directly make any obvious insult.

A restricted plot like trampling and humiliating someone with feet wearing black stockings is simply impossible to happen. “Xi…His Royal Highness the Second Prince, let me help you.”

After Nalia left, a little maid followed immediately. She was still a little nervous when she spoke. She almost forgot about Sirius's identity change at this moment and called him back to the noble young master he was called when he was just recruited.

But Sirius knew this little maid, because he had asked her to "look after" Liz in the slums before.

"Hetty, I haven't had time to ask you alone in the past two days, how is Liz doing now? Is her relationship with her father okay?"

Hearing Sirius's words, Hetty's eyes flashed with a hint that this was indeed the case.

However, she was still very respectful on the surface. While helping Sirius change into training clothes that were convenient for exercise, she explained:

"Don't worry, Your Highness, Second Prince. I go to Sister Liz every day. I see that she is not doing well, so I give her some money from my own salary..."

"what?!"

When Sirius heard this, his voice immediately rose an octave higher. This attitude also startled the maid Hetty beside him.

"Didn't I tell you not to give her money? With her character, even if she accepts it, she will feel underestimated."

Instead of feeling slighted, Sirius would just feel that the sinister and unscrupulous woman would be grateful and then scold Hetty behind her back for being the one who was taken advantage of.

The reason why he said this was simply to persuade this somewhat disobedient maid to stop her unhelpful behavior.

Are you kidding me? Giving funds to such dangerous people is not helping others to do evil.

"If you think she is having a hard time, you should advise her well. As a friend, persuade her to continue to come back to the manor. I can buy her father a house alone at the foot of the mountain for him to live in.

This way she doesn't have to walk too far if she wants to take care of her, and when she comes to work here, I give her a monthly salary, which is called labor income. A person with her personality won't feel too uncomfortable picking up this money. "

"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Second Prince... Hetty did something wrong."

Hetty, who helped Sirius button the last button, stepped aside with some shame, then lowered her head as if she had done something wrong.

At this moment, she really felt that she was doing things too mindlessly.

What's more, she didn't expect that the second prince of the empire would be such a considerate and respectful person.

If it were herself, she would never think about whether she would feel uncomfortable if she directly offered financial help from the other person's perspective.

After thinking about it, Hetty truly believed that only Sirius's approach was the most reasonable and the best way for everyone.

"Forget it, I won't blame you this time, you have good intentions."

Sirius shook his head, smiled helplessly and said, "But if you do something wrong, you still have to be punished. I will punish you by doubling your work during this period. Instead of just going over to see her, you will try your best to persuade her." She comes back to the manor.”

"Yes, Your Highness the Second Prince!"

Looking at Sirius's back as he opened the door and left, Hetty clenched her fists, thinking that she must complete the task this time.

But she didn't know how miserable Sirius looked on his face as he held the unedged sword with his back to her.
